Overview

To authenticate with the Transporeon Carrier Interface API, you need:
  1. Client ID - in the format username@companyId.
  2. Client Secret - issued alongside your Client ID.
  3. Token Host - which Transporeon token endpoint to authenticate against: api.transporeon.com (production) or api.test.transporeon.com (test).
  4. API Host - which Transporeon Carrier Interface host to connect to: xp.transporeon.com (production) or xp.test.transporeon.com (test). This must match the environment of your Token Host and credentials.

Instructions:

Step 1: Obtaining your client credentials

  1. Request API access from Transporeon (contact your Transporeon/Trimble account team). Ask for credentials for whichever environment you need — production or test.
  2. Transporeon provisions a Client ID (in the format username@companyId, where username identifies your API client and companyId identifies your carrier account) and a Client Secret.

Step 2: Selecting your token host and API host

Transporeon runs separate production and test environments, each with its own token endpoint and API host:
  • Token Host - api.transporeon.com (production) or api.test.transporeon.com (test).
  • API Host - xp.transporeon.com (production) or xp.test.transporeon.com (test).
Pick the pair matching the environment your Client ID and Client Secret were issued for — pairing a production Token Host with a test API Host (or vice versa) will fail authentication.

Step 3: Enter credentials in the Connect UI

Once you have your Client ID, Client Secret, Token Host, and API Host:
  1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with Transporeon.
  2. Enter your Client ID in its designated field.
  3. Enter your Client Secret in its designated field.
  4. Select the Token Host matching the credentials you were issued.
  5. Select the matching API Host — it must be the same environment as the Token Host.
  6. Submit the form, and you should be successfully authenticated.
You are now connected to the Transporeon Carrier Interface.
